Brocccoli-Apple- Bacon Waldorf Salad

The original Waldorf salad, created at New York's Waldorf Astoria Hotel in the 1890s, contained only apples, mayonnaise, and celery. It was later that walnuts became part of the dish.


4 c. fresh broccoli
1/2 c. uncooked raisins ( regular or Golden)
1 sm. onion, chopped (I use a purple/red just because I like the taste..use what ever you like)
1/2 c. crisp fried bacon about 1 lb. ( I usually just use real bacon bits...saves some time)
1 c. apples
1 c. walnuts, chopped
Coleslaw Dressing (to coat until desired consistency)

Mix together all ingredients and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
